GoodNews: Japan Donates 5 TC-90 Airship to the Philippines

The Japanese government has chosen to authoritatively give the two as of now being rented and three up and coming TC-90 air ship to the Philippine Navy.

This was passed on by Japanese Defense Minister Onodera to National Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana during their respective meeting at the sidelines of fourth ASEAN Defense Ministers Meeting (ADMM) Plus in Clark, Pampanga on October 23.

In September 2016, Tokyo and Manila consented to the first TC-90 deal that saw Japan's Maritime Self-Defense Force rent two air ship to the Philippines for a year beginning in March.

The earlier assention amongst Japan and Philippines was a sum of 5 TC-90 air ship will be leased at a benevolent cost, in any case, with the adjustment in Japanese controls and demand from Philippine government these flying machine will be given for nothing.

Japan trusts that the gift of the five planes will improve the Philippines' capacity to secure its waters and enable the nation to better manage Chinese endeavors to assemble military offices in the South China Sea.
